Do you worry about "failing" your annual eye exam test?
It's the same anxiety I got for the LSAT - even though I keep telling myself there is no right or wrong answer!

"Is this better, or this? this or this? this one or this one? 1 or 2 -- 1 or 2 ?"

AAAAHHH!

1. Comment during my eye exam one time
"Oh, you're one of these people who wants to be able to see a flea 30,000 feet away."

3. Hah!
perfect.

It worries me when they keep staring in your eyes from about an inch away with a bright light, going "hmmmm", then writing some stuff down, but never saying anything!

2. Nah, my vision is already so bad...
...it seems pointless to worry more. I do get nervous about the dentist, though. I'd rather wear thicker glasses than have a root canal.

Are you in Montecito, CA?

7. Modesto, but used to live in SLO County
Does the Democratic party have much of a presence there?

6. I just want to yell:
"There! Are! Four! Lights!"

and see whether the doc has any idea what I'm talking about.

8. Especially the ones
where the first lense makes the letters square and the next lense makes the letters round.

"Quick!, which do I like better..square or round..square or round".. :shrug:
